It updates requirements for internet-based continuing education courses, including more specific technical and authentication standards for online learning. The bill revises definitions of technology circuits and systems, clarifying electrical work categories and exemptions. It also expands exemptions for maintenance electricians, electrical utility workers, and other specialized workers from certain licensing and inspection requirements.
